Download problems

Emporer_D · 12-10-2006, 05:20 PM

I want to create a link that you can use to download a .wav file, but every time i click it, instead of downloading the file, it pops up in quicktime, how do i make a link that will only download and not play in quick time?

type of link im using -> <a target="_blank" href="wavefile.wav"> Text </a>

I'm not sure how this is done, but in the mean time you can also just tell people to right-click on the link and then select 'save as' to save the wave-file.
